Air Lance Kit Assembly Instructions
DO NOT USE A PIPE WRENCH, VISE GRIPS OR PLIERS ON THE AIR LANCE OR THE EXTENSION BARRELS. THEY MAY BE DAMAGED AND WEAKENED, CAUSING AN UNSAFE SITUATION WHICH COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
- To assemble the air lance for use, start by turning the locknut on the lance nozzle or extension barrel as far into the threads as possible. You may need to use a wrench or pliers for this, but do not force the locknut past the threaded portion of the lance or the extension.
- Hand tighten the lance nozzle or extension onto the “T” handle as far as possible using just your hands. When attaching the lance nozzle, pay attention to the orientation of the blade, and turn it to whichever orientation you are most comfortable using. Utiliscope recommends keeping the blade parallel to the “T” handle.
- Using a wrench or pliers (if using pliers, be careful not to use too much pressure on the locknut or it may deform), turn the locknut back towards the mating surface. Use sufficient torque to lock the barrel in place, preventing it from twisting while in use.
- When disassembling the lance kit, always loosen the locknut before unthreading mated sections. It is good practice to protect exposed threads when they are in storage with couplings or plastic caps
